500 Attend I.A.C. Party on Birthday On its eighth anniversary, the Indianapolis Athletic Club entertained more than 500 members and former members and their families at an open house celebration Thursday night. “Forbidden” floors of the club all were open to wives and daughters, for entertainment throughout the evening. Fourth and ninth floors were given over to dancing, and tables were arranged for cards in the game and palm rooms. Exhibition basketball games were played in the gymnasium between club teams. The women’s bowling team performed, and a swimming meet was held by sons and daughters. Centering the buffet supper table, at 11 in the main dining room, was a large frosted birthday cake rep-' resenting an album and inscribed with names and dates of service of the five club presidents: Henry F. Campbell, Frederick E. Matson, T. E. Myers, Roy Elder Adams and Peter C. Reilly. Revolving behind the cake was a replica of the club in white frosting, lighted from within. Photographs of the presidents were inlaid in Gallantinc of capons, arranged around the centerpiece, which was flanked with two ice blocks forming figure eights illuminated by colored lights. Louise Lowe and his orchestra played for dancing during supper.
MANNERS Every one likes to talk about their troubles, but it’s hard to get someone to listen. Jane Jordan’s business is to listen to everybody’s troubles and help them decide what to do. Write your letters now! Dear Jane Jordan—l am a foreigner. I came here when I was 7 years old. Two years later mother died. Dad put me in a home for soldiers’ children. Here I was Americanized to the fullest extent. Seven years later, dad took me out to make a home. Now he doesn’t permit me to see the children from the home with whom I practically was raised. I've been home for two years and not a boy or girl has come to see me. Dad knows plenty, but he refuses to let them come unless he Inspects them, inside and ou>. He thinks I can stay at home and j suck my thumb until he secs a good foreign boy of our own nationality and have us get married. Ridiculous! If I’m right, what can I do to make dad see? BEVERLY. Dear Beverly—ls your lather put you in a home and had you Americanized, he ought not to expect you to have any sympathy with his foreign ideas. The chances are that he won’t change. I do not see anything for you to do except put up with conditions as they are until you are of age. Then you can get a job and leave him. Don't turn against him. Maybe you will be set in your ideas, too, when you are old. But do not let him spoil your life after you are of age, free, white and 21, as we say in this country. I once knew a girl in your situation whose mother always was trying to marry her off to a young man from the old country, even after she became a successful business woman. This girl dutifully would entertain the young men, but when her mother was out of the room she would contrive to let them know how extravagant she had become since coming to America. She declared that she couldn’t cook a thing, and that she always wore silk next to her skin. She would build tales of mythical expenditures up to the sky. One by one the young foreigners disappeared mysteriously and the old mother, whose feelings the daughter couldn’t bear to hurt, never knew what happened to them. Force won’t work on your father. Try strategy. a an Dear Jane Jordan—l am a girl 16 years of age, in desperate need of advice. I am an adopted child and nave lived with my adopted parents until the last year, when I went out to work in others’ homes. No matter where I am. mv adpoted mother always Is checking on me and people I work for don t like it. My parents take every cent I make. I can't even use my money to go to night school. , _ . , I am staving with a very lovely girl and her husband now, and they pay me a small salary. This girl sympathizes with me. but she is getting tired of my parents' interference, and so am I. They tell me I am not of age to do as I please until I am 21 years old. \tyhat would you do to get out of this rut? DISCONTENTED. Dear Discontented—The only thing I know for you to do is to put yourself in the hands of the Board of Children’s Guardians, who will investigate and see that you get a square deal. If you want your money to go to night school, I think you should be allowed to do so. It is the duty of your adopted parents to equip you for life just the same as if you were their own child. a a a Dear Jane Jordan—Do you think it is correct for two or more girls about 19 years of age to stag it at a dance? There always are quite a few stags at this dance and our mothers think it is all right as long as we don’t let any strange fellows bring us home. Since the depression, so many fellows can't afford to take girls to dances or elsewhere. Now Just what can we lonely girls do? “BETS.’’ Dear Bets—lt is better to go to a dance with an escort. Many girls are solving the depression problem by entertaining the boys at home with old-fashioned games and simple refreshments. Time was when girls didn't expect to be taken somewhere to be amused. Their own home was the legitimate place in which to have a good time. For the last year or so, there has been a decided ’’back to the home” movement. Notice the cars parked around brilliantly lights houses after 8 o'clock in any residence section. Boys who frequently are entertained by the girls are obliged to reciprocate by an occasional dance or a show. They can afford it once m the while, event though they can t keep up the speed of several years ago. Engagement *4 nnounced Mr. and Mrs. Clarence E. Haymaker, 115 West Nineteenth street, announce the engagement of their daughter. Miss Virginia Haymaker, to Robert William Neddo, son of Mr. and Mrs. Williams Rains, 1132 North Illinois street. The wedding will take place in February. Sorority to Initiate Beta Theta Chi sorority will hold Initiation services Saturday night at the home of Mrs. Frank Anderson for Misses Dana Wilking, Rosemary Pullen and Louise Pike.
What’s in Fashion? Black and White Costumes Directed By AMOS PARRISH
A small collar and big cuffs are dramatic.
NEW YORK, Jan. 29.— C010r .. . bright color . . . everywhere you turn It’s fashionable all right. And a fine tonic. But—black-and-white is fashionable, too. Just as fine a tonic when you wear it in the smart, early spring way. And the smart way is with white in a soft, delicate lingerie or lace touch on a black dress. Old-fashioned? Not a bit of it. Maybe your grandmother and mother did wear this combination. You’ve worn it, too—not so long ago, either. But in a season of brilliant color, black-and-white looks as new and fresh and different as the first spring crocus. Best of all, this black-and-white fashion isn.’t confined to one time of day. It’s just as smart for semiformal daytime as for informal evening. Luncheon. Tea. Afternoon bridge Three good places to introduce your

COSY MODEL FOR SCHOOL It will have especial appeal to mother, because it can be worn with several different blouses—some in cotton fabrics that will tub—and give a variety to small daughter’s wardrobe. The original dress had a military air of guardsman blue wool crepe. The little waistband of the plaited skirt was accented by brass buttons and vivid red bias piping. The red piping also trimmed the edge of the bolero jacket. The separate blouse was vivid red wool crepe. A matching blue shade linen blouse would be cunning for this outfit. Style No. 696 is designed for sizes 4,6, 8 and 10 years. Size 6 requires l's yards of 39-inch material for bolero and skirt and •"* yard of 35inch material for blouse and 2 ? i yards for binding.

new black-and-white semi-formal daytime dress. Rather tailored in line, the dress will be. In a dull, rough-surfaced crepe or sheer wool. A fine foil for the soft touch of white organdie, embroidered batiste or Irish crochet lace. That last sounds different, doesn’t it? You haven’t seen much of that used for quite some time. But you’re going to see lots of it these coming months, used in collars, cuffs or insertion on black dresses. This Irish isn’t the kind with the heavy raised flowers, but the meshy, flat kind that looks so soft and delicate. A small collar and big cuffs of the white—that’s dramatic. Some of the biggest and best cuffs are like those in the dress illustrated, flaring widely like big gauntlets. If you’re dated up for a very formal tea, an informal dinner or a Sunday night supper, you couldn’t wear anything smarter right now than a lower calf length dress ol black dull crepe or heavy sheer crepe with a yoke and cap sleeves of white lace or embroidered batiste. Chances are, too, if this evening date of yours is in the very near future,, you’ll be the first to appear in this fashion—it’s so new.

Everywhere women spread llio . ..11 . I H .. more and whiter wash* logs S If yon think extra sods don't save work and time in washing, yon J have a surprise in store. Just try the sensational soap discovery, the New Oxydol. The instant you sprinkle Oxydol in either washtub or dishpan you can SEE its superiority over weak, old-type soaps with their watery S®pr Jfmtf suds. These richer, sudsier suds SOAK out the dirt with no tiresome I rubbing —and do it with incredible speed. It's simply foolish and j old-fashioned to rub your life away over a washtub since the New i Oxydol has come to town. And it's great for dishes too —and kind to hands and delicate fabrics. Ask your grocer today for the orange and blue suds-bargain package. Then you can face washday with a smile. Procter & Gamble rt vV " && *° II I*6 eg#** ’
